Clackamas Women Lawyers will be having our next roundtable discussion on the issue of “What to Wear to Court.” The event will be held on October 9, 2014 at Buckley Law Firm from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm with a social following the discussion from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. The presenters will be our very own Judge Miller, Jaye Taylor and Angela Lucero.
This issue is a highly discussed topic for women professionals nationwide and it will be very interesting to see the perspectives of established female attorneys and a respected judge. As you might be aware, OWLS recently held a CLE on generational issues. We are fortunate to have on our panel attorneys and judges from different generations. Do different generations differ in terms of what they believe is appropriate court attire? Come and find out!
Please feel free to RSVP by email to CWLS president, Ericka Langone, at [email protected] by Monday, October 6, 2014.
